COURTS Singapore, the leading retailer of home electronics, IT and furniture products officially unveiled the COURTS Smart Home Experiential Hub recently and also introduced the newly announced members of the #MadebyGoogle hardware family – Google Home and Google Home Mini.

The experiential concept area, located at the flagship COURTS Megastore at Tampines demonstrates the extensive use of Google Home devices alongside compatible products in a home setting. Consumers will be able to see the voice-activated speaker powered by the Google Assistant in action.

With a simple “Okay Google”, users can get answers, turn up the music, manage everyday tasks or control smart devices around your home. At the COURTS Smart Home Experiential Hub, customers will also be able to see how Google Home can be used to control the lights and TV from popular household brands Philips Hue and Sony.

The Google Assistant launched here has been localised for Singaporeans to recognise the Singlish accent, and Google Home supports popular music and video platforms including YouTube, Spotify and Netflix. Singaporeans can listen to their local radio stations with TuneIn Radio, or play the latest news from local news providers such as The Straits Times and Channel NewsAsia, with the availability of more services and content in the pipeline.

Google Home and Google Home Mini are available in all COURTS stores island-wide and on www.courts.com.sg at $189 and $79 respectively. Over 30 compatible products ranging from speakers to vacuum robots from Sony, Philips, TP Link, Marshall, JBL, Sensibo and iRobot can already be found in COURTS stores for the smart home shopper, with more to come at a later stage.

COURTS carries the largest selection of home furnishings, domestic appliances, home entertainment solutions and the latest digital technology.

With its roots as a furniture retailer from the UK, the COURTS brand was established in Singapore and Malaysia in 1974 and 1987 respectively, and entered Indonesia in 2014.
